Despite the obvious propaganda attempting to demonize him, Fidel Castro will always remain an icon, a warrior for the poor and disenfranchised. He will forever be a symbol of revolution against Western imperialism, colonialism, subjugation, human exploitation and profit before people.
The legendary Fidel Castro fought against Western subjugation and exploitation of the poor and won. He died [on 26 November] at 90 years old, unbroken, undefeated. Castro was the David who beat Goliath on behalf of the poor. He was the revolutionary hero of the twentieth century who supported the liberation of African peoples all over the world.
And yes there's still racism in Cuba and freedom of the press and choice were limited....
